The Final Countdown - Europe

作词：Joey Tempest

作曲：Joey Tempest

Standing in line marking time

Waiting for the welfare dime

Cause they can't buy a job

The man in the silk

Suit hurries by

As he catches

The poor ladies eyes

Just for fun he says get a job

That's just the way it is

Some things will never change

That's just the way it is

Ah but don't you believe them

Said hey little boy

You can't go where the others go

Cause you don't look like they do

Said hey old man how can you stand

To think that way

Did you really think about it

Before you made the rules

He said son

That's just the way it is

Some things will never change

That's just the way it is

Ah but don't you believe them

That's just the way it is

That's just the way it is

Well they passed a law in 64

To give those

Who ain't got a little more

But it only goes so far

Because the law

Don't change another's mind

When all it sees at the hiring time

Is the line on the color bar

No no no

That's just the way it is

Some things will never change

That's just the way it is

That's just the way it is
